Bethesda Softworks Announced Fallout 4 VR for the HTC Vive at E3

At this year's E3 keynote, it was announced that Bethesda Softworks' Fallout 4 wil be made available as a Fallout 4 VR experience for the HTC Vive in 2017. This is one of the biggest announcements to come from the E3 event, since it will make Fallout 4 one of the first open-world games to be officially adapted for play in a virtual reality mode.

While the version of Fallout 4 that fans know and love won't be entirely revamped for virtual reality gameplay, Bethesda Softworks has been vocal about its goals to remain a leader in virtual reality gaming with upcoming releases.

A flatscreen game like Fallout 4 being turned into a VR experience opens up a world of new possibilities for reviving previously released titles with virtual reality technology.
